Anyone who watched the entire 14-minute video shown at Cheezy's second impeachment trial yesterday understands that the MAGA riot occurring on January 6th was in no way a spontaneous event. It was planned in advance, and went pretty much as the planners expected it would. It's therefore no surprise that so many people who have been identified and arrested are now confirming they were basically following the orders of their commander-in-chief.
Sen. Mike Shirkey of the Michigan state legislature alleges that the MAGA riot was a staged event that didn't involve many, if any, of Cheez Doodle's devoted followers. If he actually believes what he said, he's too fucking stupid to hold state office. If he doesn't actually believe it, he's just plain evil and should be booted out of government. Either way, he's totally dispensable.
The case against Cheezy is so strong, any (R) senator who votes to acquit him can justifiably be considered an enemy of the United States.
It seems like for every (R) in Congress who's willing to do the right thing at least once, there are about 500 other (R)s who are ready to promptly condemn him (or her) for it. On the other hand, for every repulsive (R) asshole like Empty Greene, Jim Jordan or Louie Gohmert, who never does the right thing, there are usually fewer than a dozen other (R)s willing to criticize, much less condemn. The underlying message is something like "If you want to be popular in our club, you're expected to be a complete asshole."
The Rude Pundit has posted an excellent commentary about how refreshing it is to have a government with plenty of younger Democrats who don't give a fuck about RepubliQan angst over Joe's policy agenda, and aren't afraid to offend them.
